ZetaChain’s Approach to Seamless Cross-Chain Interaction
ZetaChain is meant to let several networks interact directly without depending on centralized bridges or wrapped tokens. Within a blockchain environment currently mostly dependent on this method, ZetaChain presents a safer and more sensible alternative.
On the other hand, CNF has earlier reported that ZetaChain works with Subgraph Studio. Through this cooperation, developers may create flawless, more efficient cross-chain apps.
These days, developers may access data from several big networks, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Base, and Solana, without using wrapped tokens or bridges. For projects aiming at maximizing interoperability without compromising security, this opens up new opportunities.
Advancing Web3 Security and Accessibility
Telekom MMS is joining as a validator, therefore ensuring ZetaChain’s stability and security. As Portfolio and Digital Security Lead at Deutsche Telekom MMS, Eugenio Carlon underlined that this phase fits their goal of enabling a safer and more easily accessible Web3 ecosystem.
Deutsche Telekom, among the biggest telecom firms worldwide, is not new in using blockchain technology. They used to also be active in a number of significant blockchain projects, including Polkadot and Chainlink. Telekom MMS is now broadening its influence in the Web3 sector even more by joining ZetaChain.
The reason Telekom MMS joined ZetaChain goes beyond only network certification. This is an indication that flawless interoperability is about to define the blockchain sector. The development of universal blockchain mostly revolves around security, accessibility, and flexibility.
A New Chapter in DeFi and Token Accessibility
Before this partnership announcement, the platform officially enabled ZETA token trading on multiple top exchanges, including OKX, Bitget, KuCoin, Gate, and Bitfinex, on February 1, 2025. ZetaHub organized a 30-day worldwide XP event to honor this occasion, letting users earn ZETA tokens by engaging in different events.
In addition, on December 9, 2024, Avalon Finance officially joined the ZetaChain ecosystem as one of the top 10 lending apps. The platform brings native BTC lending features to the DeFi sector. Now, users can easily borrow or lend assets such as BTC, ZETA, ETH, and stablecoins with seamless access to the ZetaChain-based market.
Meanwhile, as of the writing time, ZETA is swapped hands at about $0.2143, up 0.49% over the last 24 hours, but still sideways over the last 7 days.
